Hi All,
I'm not mad at anyone. I don't think this whole thing had much to do with anyone else's actions.
A few posts seemed to act as part of a trigger but I think my anger was actually based on grief. Four years ago Halloween, I lost my partner of 21 years. Last year on the day after Thanksgiving, my mom went to the hospital and never came home.
It took me awhile of just sitting around petting my dog and quietly crying before I figured this out.
BC will be back up soon and I'm sorry that I took it down.
Hugs,
Erin

I can understand your grief and your timing is surprising, exactly one month ago from yesterday my brother passed.We all thought he'd make it passed Thanksgiving and to make it worse he passed a couple weeks before his forty eighth birthday.So I wish you luck in getting thru this holiday season and I'll put you in my prayers.Amy
BIg hug to you
Hi Erin
I have spent my entire 36 years battling loneliness. I know that my path is different from yours, but hugs to you all the same.

The volume speaks for itself
The community cares. A virtual hug is not necessarily the same as a real one, but there's an awful lot of folks, myself included, willing to give you one when needed. Don't feel you need to bottle things up with us. When times are rough, we can, perhaps, help a little.
Hugs,
Joanne
Wishing you are back in good spirits.....
Love and HUGS,
Sheila
Apology? None needed
This is a good time to thank you for all the work that is required to maintain this site. While I’m at it I also thank the many authors that contribute stories. The quality of the stories is remarkably high.
Most of the users of the site are courteous and generate constructive comments. Occasionally some of us have a bad day. We’re all human.
Just don’t let our or your problems get you down.

Been Away
Erin, I've been away, and just now returned to find your sad, sad post. I hope things are looking a little better now. You are very dear to hundreds of other people for whom you have created and sustained a community of friends, as the wealth of hugs above attests. And to which I add mine: HUG! Daphne

Take care
No one can fault you, Erin. We are all living off your charity here, and if you need to look to yourself, you have to do it.
Hugs,

As I Write
1557 hits on this blog and 57 sympathy "cards". I think that says it quite nicely. Me too, Erin,
